There’s a huge difference between having a baby and having a cat. For one, having a cat is not nearly as big an investment as having a baby is. Human children are demanding, require a lot of effort, and great care to keep them safe and secure. Cats, on the other hand, are far more self-assured.

This artist has… Passionate feelings, let’s say, about the relationship between babies and cats. Namely, they sort of hate babies. Considering them goblins while cats are totally-not-goblins. These hilarious comics are drawn in an adorable way, even though there’s a lot of… Feces involved in some frames.

Nevertheless, they’re wonderfully funny, and you can check out more on the artist at their website, The Oatmeal.

To start, what’s the difference?

The nature of the goblin.

And then there’s the difference of poops.

Babies and cats also express distaste differently.

That’s a little bit harsh. Especially since I know for a fact that my murderous little fluff ball decides to scratch up my furniture when he’s upset, or just decide to practice the 100m sprint at 3 am for no reason. However, despite that, I still lean more towards having a second cat than a child, so maybe the artist knew what he was talking about.
